I noticed the next generation of Indians currently competing in their First Class A,B,C & D teams scoring well below 200.

I don't think it's a question any longer.

It's a given.

for the handful of people who refuse to leave the era of typewriters and landlines - definitely!

For the rest of the world, especially the youth constituency, the impact is positive.

Swinging & slogging is not quality batting. It is striking the ball. Do not confuse stroke play with kiddie-cricket-whack-it-ball.
